The U.S. military said Tuesday that no American soldiers have been reported missing in Iraq following an internet statement that an American soldier had been taken hostage. In Baghdad, the U.S. military's press office in Baghdad said "no units have reported anyone missing."
The posting, on a militant-sympathetic Web site included a photo of what they said was an American soldier in desert fatigues sitting on the floor with his hands tied behind his back. The figure with the gun to his head was in fact a "G.I. Joe"-style doll, made by Dragon Models USA.
The militants claimed to be holding other American soldiers (or possibly, a case of G.I. Joes). "Our mujahedeen heroes of Iraq's Jihadi Battalion were able to capture American military man John Adam after killing a number of his comrades and capturing the rest," said the statement, signed by the "Mujahedeen Brigades."
